A museum, concert venue, and recording studio rolled into one, Canada’s National Music Centre, housed at Studio Bell in Calgary, is at the cutting edge of music programming in Canada, and acts as an important hub outside of the Toronto-Montreal-Vancouver triangle. CEO Andrew Mosker oversaw an incredibly busy couple of years, including successful exhibitions (Randy Bachman’s Every Guitar Tells a Story and Deane Cameron-inspired Rock The Nation Live), the return of the Canadian Music Hall of Fame recognition event in partnership with CARAS, honouring legends like Deborah Cox and Diane Dufresne, and the development of the OHSOTO’KINO Music Incubator, providing professional development for Indigenous music creators. That’s all in addition to events like their Canada Day celebration, which brought in 8,000 attendees. Four artists who recorded at the NMC received 2024 Juno nominations for their albums, further illuminating the centre’s manifold contributions to Canadian music cultures.
